Burrata with truffle artichoke puree

Make for Sìso, where an indulgent, truffle-themed lunch awaits

Celebrate truffle season at Sìso throughout June with the eatery’s delectable ‘Shuffle in for a Truffle lunch’ offering. From now until the end of the month, those partial to the winter delicacy will be treated to a bespoke, two-course menu centred on truffles hand-dug by head chef Michael at Ohiwa Truffle Farm.

To start, a glass of Church Road Series wine will be paired with your choice of either creamy burrata with truffle artichoke purée, or a delicate and flavourful beef tartare with freshly grated truffle. While, when it comes to the main event, you’ll have two exquisite dishes to choose from — a truffle, wild mushroom, and sage risotto, or a decadent, truffle braised beef cheek paradelle, topped with a generous helping of finely shaved truffle.

And for those looking to put their own spin on things, freshly shaved truffle can be added to any dish you wish from Sìso’s a la carte menu, at any time of the day, offering endless opportunities for indulgence.
